Square
Square is looking for a dynamic Sales Leader to lead a team of Sales Development Representatives who are the front line to our growth engine. Our Sales Development Team qualifies inbound pipeline, identifies ideal customers, and set the foundation for long-term partnerships that help businesses thrive.
As an SDR Manager, you'll build a high-performing team that doesn't just hit numbers—they understand our merchants, represent our values, and create exceptional first impressions. You'll coach, motivate, and develop your team while partnering cross-functionally to refine our go-to-market strategy.
If you're energized by developing talent, obsessed with pipeline quality, and want to directly impact how thousands of businesses discover Square, this role is for you.
You will:
- Manage, coach, and develop a team of Sales Development Representatives focused on inbound sales leads including weekly 1:1 meetings, weekly shadow sessions, call coaching, and co-selling
- Build a culture of accountability, growth mindset, and healthy competition where top performers thrive and everyone improves
- Improve the efficiency of warm lead qualification to ensure high SAL’s (Sales Accepted Leads) per SDR, and strengthen the cold-lead playbook to improve SDR performance against new Marketing channels
- Analyze funnel metrics to identify opportunities for improvement in volume, conversion rates, and meeting quality
- Work closely with Sales leadership to ensure pipeline meets quality standards and converts downstream
- Implement best practices around prospecting, messaging, personalization, and outreach cadence
- Partner with Marketing, Sales Ops, and Sales leadership to refine ideal customer profiles, territory strategy, and account prioritization
- Test and iterate on messaging, channels, and tactics to improve response rates and engagement
- Develop scalable coaching frameworks, onboarding programs, and performance management systems
- Continue to grow the team through recruiting, onboarding, and training of new SDRs
- Contribute to the broader SDR function strategy and share learnings across teams
You have:
- 3+ years of experience in sales development, business development, or outbound sales, with at least 1+ years in a leadership/management capacity
- Proven track record of managing and developing high-performing BDR/SDR/Sales teams that consistently meet or exceed pipeline targets
- Deep understanding of outbound prospecting motions: cold calling, email sequencing, social selling, multi-channel outreach
- Experience coaching sellers on messaging, objection handling, qualification, and activity management
- Data-driven mindset: Comfortable analyzing metrics, identifying trends, and using insights to drive decisions
